## org.bouncycastle.crypto.prng.drbg
Interface SP80090DRBG

All Known Implementing Classes:
  CTRSP800DRBG, DualECSP800DRBG, HashSP800DRBG, HMacSP800DRBG

public interface SP80090DRBG

Interface to SP800-90A deterministic random bit generators.

Method Summary
`int` | `generate(byte[] output, byte[] additionalInput, boolean predictionResistant)` Populate a passed in array with random data.
`int` | `getBlockSize()` Return the block size of the DRBG.
`void` | `reseed(byte[] additionalInput)` Reseed the DRBG.

Method Detail

### getBlockSize

    public int getBlockSize()

  Return the block size of the DRBG.

  Returns:
    the block size (in bits) produced by each round of the DRBG.

### generate

    public int generate(byte[] output,
                        byte[] additionalInput,
                        boolean predictionResistant)

  Populate a passed in array with random data.

  Parameters:
    `output` - output array for generated bits.
    `additionalInput` - additional input to be added to the DRBG in this step.
    `predictionResistant` - true if a reseed should be forced, false otherwise.
  Returns:
    number of bits generated, -1 if a reseed required.

### reseed

    public void reseed(byte[] additionalInput)

  Reseed the DRBG.

  Parameters:
    `additionalInput` - additional input to be added to the DRBG in this step.
